I don't even really know what to say, so here goes nothing...
Most of you know my story, and have been an amazing source of support during the past 7 months, so thank you SO much for that. After we lost Kenley @ 38+4, we were originally told to wait a year (pfft) to start TTC again. i knew with our infertility issues that this wouldn't be happening. I made an appt with the MFM team at Ohio State University and my amazing Dr cleared us to start trying at the 3 month mark. My RE ran all of my labs again, and my AMH had dropped to nearly undetectable; He told us the only way was IVF. So...onward we marched. We were completely OOP for IVF, but knew we wanted to keep going.
I had a shitty response to meds (surprise surprise...) at my first monitoring appt and almost got canceled. My RE ultimately upped my meds, and my ovaries rallied like the champs they are. We had 7R/7M/7F and ended up PGS testing every single embryo; 3 were normal. My FET was July 18th, where we transferred Kenley's little sister. I've been turning tests since 4dp5dt but wanted to wait for my first beta to venture back over here. I want to celebrate every second this little girl is with me, but I'm super nervous.
Beta came back at 107 today (9dp5dt/14dpo) so I feel that it's the right time to intro. I have repeat betas on Friday @ 9 am. My IVF nurse said my EDD would be April 5th, but my MFM will deliver me at/by 37 weeks, so we're look at March 16th.
I'm not sure how I feel honestly, but I know that I need you ladies to hold my hand for the next 37 weeks.
ETA- Beta #2 came back at 225. Doubling time of 44 hours. I will repeat on Monday and the RE will decide when to schedule our ultrasound. I guess this is really happening!! Thank you guys for such a warm welcome. I love you guys!!!
•• ETA-- Beta 3 was this morning. It came back at 920! I was expecting 600-700, so we're pretty happy with that. Our RE scheduled our first ultrasound for Thursday at 9 am ••
